this group is pure evil. it's been roundly whumped on the scienceblogs network (yeah, that's real scientists, not PR paid lackeys for the walled garden science press). PLoS is the future. R&D without access to the primary literature is impossible. we get scientists to do research who have to publish in these journals and then universities have to pay to subscribe. if you think getting people to send you the manuscripts (who also do the reviewing) that you then bind and sell back to the same people is a bit off, you're not alone.
